Microsoft® Visual Studio® Team System code name “Rosario” is the version of Team System that follows Visual Studio Team System 2008. It is an integrated Application Life-cycle Management (ALM) solution comprising tools, processes, and guidance.

i heard in the last EDC - Egyptian developers conference- that Rosario will not be released with a new dotnet framework, it will work with dotnet framework 3.5 like VSTS2008.

Some of the major scenarios and features in this release will include:

Joint prioritization and management of IT projects through integration with Microsoft Project Server

Project management across multiple projects for proactively load balancing resources according to business priorities

Full traceability (inc. hierarchical work items) to track project deliverables against business requirements and the ability to conduct rapid impact analysis of proposed changes

Comprehensive metrics and dashboards for shared visibility into project status and progress against deliverables

Powerful new features to enable developers and testers to quickly identify, communicate, prioritize, diagnose and resolve bugs

Integrated test case management to create, organize and manage test cases across both the development and test teams

Testing automation and guidance to help developers and testers focus on business-level testing rather than repetitive, manual tasks

Quality metrics for a ‘go/no-go’ release decision on whether an application is ready for production and has been fully tested against business requirements

Rapid integration of remote, distributed, disconnected and outsourced teams into the development process

Easy customization of process and guidance from Microsoft and partners to match the way your team works
